>
> Good morning, Gentlemen:
> I purchased a set of Miller 4 wheel passenger trucks at the NASG
> auction in Duluth. Yesterday I opened the package. The wheel sets were
> out-of-gauge by my much newer NASG gauge. Easy to fix with a twist and
> a drop of ACC. Now that the wheel sets are wider, I may need new
> bolsters. This is not an issue. I can build these from brass stock.
>
> The trucks came in two bags: one of wheel sets and one of side frames,
> springs, etc. No instructions. I poured the white metal parts into a
> plastic tray and started trying to assemble them. Examining the parts I
> discovered that the drop hangers have the roller bearing journals
> attached. These drop onto the side frames and neatly mesh. A pair of
> springs go between the drop hanger and the side frame. The side frame
> has mounting tabs for the bolster.
>
> My problem is 'how do these things stay together'? I dropped the drop
> hanger onto the side frame and inserted the springs. Nice equalization
> and operation with the springs. But the moment I picked this assembly
> up, it falls apart. There isn't an interlock.
>
> Also the side frame tabs for the bolsters are just flat slabs. How do
> they supposed to attach to the bolsters? No screws were included for me
> to drill-and-tap a hole to attach the bolster.
>
> Help!
